We need a new Arab spring in Egypt, Saudi Arabia, and all these gulf oil state dictatorships. But the CIA would probably hijack those, too.

How did other countries' leftist movements deal with this? Like how did the Bolsheviks, Mensheviks, and SRs survive in Tsarist Russia when they were constantly being infiltrated, censored, banned, their leaders exiled, etc?
Maybe this is a better question for a separate askchapo/asklemmygrad thread.
. I had already been able to access the hard drive and backup all my files a few days ago.
Smart!
Never played Stellaris but that sounds like real life attempts to build communism lol
I hope not yet. I still need to get a gun.
Not that it will help against a whole squad of ICE/SWAT/marines or whatever jack boot thugs they get to take out communists soon, but at at least I can make them work for it.
Holy shit they just detained a sitting US senator for asking a question.
Is it me or are they hitting the gas pedal on fascism too hard? Like this will even anger libs. They actually care about decorum, and the respect and authority of elected offices.
I posted in this the other news thread about this story but the sentiment stands, because damn are these chuds getting bold.

Nice! You get a new one or just was able to repair your current one?
It's actually a great reminder I should do another backup of all my data soon. Been awhile since my last one.
I finally started watching a couple of his clips when someone linked him talking about Yeonmi Park here and have been impressed. He was talking good things about North Korea and it was blowing his audience's mind. But he talks in such a joking / disarming way, I think it gets past most people's automatic propaganda defense reflexes to immediately click away.
I'm going to start recommending him to people. He seems like a great intro.
I'm scared for these orgs, though. Apparently they're also targeting CHIRLA, which led the charge on these protests initially I believe, and other immigrant rights organizations, too. The new red scare is starting up I feel and the fascist hammer of the state will come down on everyone organizing outside the two parties.
The left never really survived the first red scare, but hopefully they picked up some lessons to apply to this one.
I don't think so yet, but someone feel free to correct me if I'm wrong. I'm guessing they're consulting lawyers and discussing within their committees and such. The good thing about a democratic centralist organization is that they hopefully should be able to respond to this quickly, so I'm surprised they're taking this long, but hopefully it means a good and solid response of "fuck you, we haven't done anything, we don't have to".
Only problem with going underground that I could see is it makes it more difficult to advertise and grow your membership.
